Questions
[edit]
Verse 1
- Why is it an event, rather than a place, that Nephi is returning from?
[edit]
Verse 2
- It is coincidence that Lehi and Nephi are talking about their revelation from the Lord at about the same time? Or did Lehi wait to share what he had received until after Nephi had his revelatory experience?
[edit]
Verse 3
- Why didn't Lehi say "Laban hath a record of the Jews"? To what extent was Lehi saying that Laban possessed the only record of the Jews? Is it possible that Lehi was not aware of any other records being kept the Jews at that time?
[edit]
Verse 4
- With this vague explanation, did Lehi leave open the possibility that Nephi and his brothers could take the records without obtaining Laban's permission?
[edit]
Verse 5
- Why did Lehi tell Nephi's brothers about the trip back to Jerusalem before he told Nephi? Was it because Nephi was preoccupied with speaking with the Lord?
- Was Lehi implying that Sam was one of the brothers who murmured?
